Summary

A copy of all data held in the Marine Noise Registry (MNR) database, other than personal data, along with permission to re-use the data provided.

When using and/or interpreting the MNR output maps and spatial data, users should take into account the caveats in the enclosed document MNRdatacaveats2021Jan.docx and refer to the data dictionary, datadictionaryMNRRawData2021Jan.xlsx.

Noise events are described in pulse block days (PBD), using the UK oil and gas licensing grid, which consists of a series of blocks measuring 10 minutes latitude by 12 minutes longitude. A PBD is when at least one noise event (between the frequencies of 10 Hz and 10 kHz, multibeam echosounders up to 12 kHz) has occurred within a block on a particular day.
